First up, i’m not in the habit of speaking up publicly, but I feel I have something to say…
Since I started out playing records 16 years ago, I have become increasingly frustrated by the lack of respect for our dance music heritage & artistry output In this increasingly naive era of disposable music, where tracks stay in people’s record bags (or should i say laptops) for a nanosecond before being ruthlessly sidelined for ‘newer, fresh’ material. I’ve always tried to play music that speaks to me. A lot of new stuff does get in the bag, there is always great fresh music out there somewhere but I also find that I’m continually drawn back to various cuts due to their continual aural radiance and integrity. These are the sort of records that connect with my mind… even if I have heard them many times before..
I hope people out there get where I’m coming from before passing judgment…. As it seems to me that what we are all presented with now is one big ego ball of media driven competitiveness. This saddens me. Where is the love?…
I believe really knowing every moment in a record allows one to fully harness the dancefloor and the mind of it’s occupants by delivering music in a way that goes far beyond words… Favouring quality timeless music regardless of age or release date, rather than ‘quick fix’ records is the way things roll over here.
For all those DJ’s out there with no musical integrity, I urge you to dig a little deeper in your quest and search out timeless music, never mind the ‘genre’. Leave those ego’s at the door and come soak up the flavors because at the end of the day, it really is all about the music…. So with that in mind I hope you enjoy the journey here, an honest, straight up mix from the soul……. Miles
